The old man was the only one who could feel the changes, as the formation had been created with him as the controller. He knew that if he wanted, he could move the planet, make it disappear, or even teleport it away. Naturally, he wouldn't do that unless there was an actual moment of crysis, after all, the flora of the planet required the planet to keep his usual cycle to survive.
Nevertheless, the old man was extremely grateful to Daniel, who had no motivation to do this, but had done it either way. "I.. I don't know what to say." He said while in a clearly emotional state.
Daniel had no intention of staying any longer, so before the old man could start anything, he waved his hand in a dismissive way, and said "There is no need to say anything. Just open the portal, so that we can be on our way."
